    Match Thread Coventry City - Southampton Match Thread - Saturday 14th Mar

    Thought today would be challenging and before game would have been grateful for a draw. Really not surprised or worried by defeat. Not scapegoating, but regard Kitch and Wolf as our back up CBs: it's expecting a lot to win with them against a very 'competitive' outfit. As others have said, I...

    You can only have a ticket if you remember…

    Have always hated Eddie Howe for that... Not his fault mind you, very astute of him to palm us off with absolute dog shit and underpay for a future England international. Just can't believe the club was so naive to accept complete dross in replacement. BTW yes, I know we were skint etc. but...

    Obviously, Rushworth was absolutely great too before I get slated for not saying that!

    I think Sakamoto is a fantastic player, his workrate is second to none and his contribution yesterday was vital. However, got to say, I disagree with you in terms of MOTM performance. He passed the ball backwards to MVE a hell of a lot yesterday and his attempted crosses were blocked...

    I hope you are not implying that I am Grendel, that is deeply offensive :)

    I decided to join in loudly with the pre match 'Always believe in... Thatcher's Gold, Gold!' chant as I love the stuff and there were some obvious nutters at the back of the stand who I wanted to deceive into thinking I was Bristol :) I applauded Bristol City efforts on target... i.e great...

    I was in home end too - right at the back. Similar to you: bloke called DaSilva a 'poisoned Welsh dwarf who can't play football' just seconds before he beat 2 defenders and delivered that cross for the goal!!! I managed not to laugh out loud at him when it went in... just.

    local info for the trip on Saturday

    Will be with home fans but close to away end... live in Exmouth now (have done for 7 years, too lazy to change username) Limited financially so rarely go to football these days, really looking forward to game tomorrow and drinking in Bristol again. Favourite pub of ones mentioned is probably...

    All Blues today?

    I think Blues have become a lot harder to like in the past few years, however, on balance I still like them (just). I developed a soft spot for them when they had that maniac Barry Fry in charge, plus I always liked the very loud KRO song. Got nothing against Boro either, decent club, but hopes...

    Spot on. Have read some rumours that parachute payments are possibly being scrapped in the not too distant future. If we went for it spending tens of millions on transfer fees / wages etc. and failed to stay up, then the plug was pulled on parachute payments, we would be fucked. First we need...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Maybe we should pay off the £42.5 million we still owe for the stadium and have a set amount for transfer fees / agents fees / wages etc. which we are not prepared to smash to stay in the division? Don't know about interest payments on what we owe for stadium....

    Speaking of Sheffield Wednesday and no joy, anyone else feel a bit sorry for them at the moment? Relegated by their revolting rivals, 12 consecutive defeats (failing to score in 10 of those). In recent years some of our fans have expressed a dislike for them (know there was that racist...

    Match Thread Shef Utd - Coventry City Match Thread Wednesday 25th Feb 19.45 KO

    Tyler Bindon was a defender Lampard was apparently keen on signing a while ago, be interesting to see how he gets on. Just as concerning as the result tonight for me is the real risk that one of our key players gets a bad injury. Would advise Rushworth not to try a fancy turn on the ball...

    Match Thread Shef Utd - Coventry City Match Thread Wednesday 25th Feb 19.45 KO

    How much of a loss is Kalvin Phillips to them tonight? I have no idea if he was lacking in match fitness anyway. Think Sakamoto will start tonight as although Sheff Utd are always quite physical, Harrison Burrows isn't exactly a hatchet man and will actually focus on trying to get forward...

    Feel very sorry for Sheaf, seems his career is going to be stalled by injuries. Have to say though, I think you are right.
